Right, although now I was incorporating GNU SASL into the uClinux
build framework.  All autoconf based programs that have been "ported"
to uClinux appear to use hand-written Makefile's.  The reason I went
through the hassle of incorporating GNU SASL into the uClinux
framework was to get the tools included in the uClinux generated ROMFS
root file system automatically.  But it is likely much simpler to
cross-compile it first (which, incidentally, I've already done), and
manually move the tools on to the root file system.  I'll likely do
that, thanks for the heads-up.
